It's about time I wore a different pair of jeans

Sorry about my post yesterday. I just needed a good cry...and McDonald's, which I finally got tonight. Now I feel sick. I hate McDonald's. I'll still want it in another couple months or so.

As you guys know (or not), I've been dressing more casual lately. I had to clean out a room packed full of junk to the ceiling. It's been really hard not to go in wearing the same t-shirt and jeans. But I did....I wore the same jeans for two weeks. And you guys didn't say anything!!! I'm pretty sure I haven't washed those jeans in months. I'm not gross. I'm efficient. But I was also bored...so gray skinnies it was...and a sweater...because it was cold today...specifically, in the 60s.

totally loving these grey skinny jeans. so cute. i came up on some money... i robbed a bank. okay not really it is Christmas money i got from my grandparents and now i can finally get some clothes... well $80 dollars worth at least. i had more but i had to take some out for much needed haircut and of course a present for my little sisters. but who cares! i have $80 bucks to spend on clothes. target here i come!! ;]

i'm not really sure why i just told you all that. haha. sorry. i am just excited and i knew *you* would understand my excitement. =D

kinsey french... OMG!!! Hahaha totally laughed at your comment. You're so awesome. I totally understand!! My family asked what I wanted for Christmas and I had NO idea. I haven't gone shopping for so long and I don't look at stores online because they're so tempting so I just asked for expensive boxes of chocolate. Let me know what you get!! Shopping is toooo exciting for me sometimes ;)

Haha, you crack me up. Matt introduced me to McGriddles at McDonalds, and for a week or so after that I was craving them all. the. time. Then I got my fix. And felt sick. And was astounded at how much a McDonalds breakfast costs. Hmph.

And I am guilty of not washing my jeans very often... but I'm really just trying to preserve them so they don't fade. Which is very cost-effective. Right??

A young woman I mentor was feeling down about looking and feeling fashionable while still maintaining her own sense of dignity and modesty, so I gave her a list of blogs to check out. She came back today and couldn't stop talking about yours! I'm excited to see how she continues to explore herself and her style, and happy that she's creating a list of positive resources for herself.

And those jeans are the perfect pale shade, and I adore how the dark shoes and bag ground everything.

I come home and put on the same pair of yoga pants and same cardigan day after day too. It is hard not to fall back on your favorite, most comfortable pieces when you are either relaxing or doing "dirty work". (For me that's every day when I clean my house, chase my kids, and craft.)

Hey, no judgment here. Sometimes you have to do what you have to do. :) I like the gray skinnies on you though and the pale palette is one of my favorite. Hope you get some well deserved rest or things slow down some more.

Talking about being cold when it's in the 60's made me think of my mom. They live in FL, and she'll complain to me about the cold. I usually have to laugh because her version of cold, is my version of warm.

Your casual style is just pretty damn awesome. It may feel like you don't put alot of effort into it, but when people still love that, it's some kind of great gift.

I totally noticed you were wearing the same jeans for about 2 weeks and I was wondering if you were doing some kind of self challenge that you hadn't told us about. But I also started to think, man, if I had a pair of jeans that I loved that much... what a great place this world would be!

Finally got your McDonalds, I always feel yuk after eating them too! But go back for more eventually. Love the outfit, esp the shoes have been looking for some similar for a while, I just can't find the perfect pair.

Haha nice to see a change of jeans but I love those black ones, I'd wear them every day too! I don't wash my jeans unless they get really dirty or they need to shrink ;)I love that sweater!http://aclosetfashionista.blogspot.com/

I wish cold meant in the '60s here, lucky girl! Our high today is a balmy 28. I know you're jealous. And jeans are meant to be worn a lot without washing them, that's how they get that worn-in-super-comfortable-feel and look way better too usually!-Meaganhttp://spunkychateau.blogspot.com

I love the grey skinnies. I am the same way about my dark wash jeggings. I literally have to force myself out of them lol. I've been trying to clean up my room, but just when I get it clean, it gets dirty again :/ The beauty of having a 3 year old who wants to play in your room lol.

1. I want some grey jeans now.2. I do the same thing with McDonalds. Every so often I crave beyond belief their french fries. I go get some, smash them into my mouth...and then feel sick for at least an hour. Why can't I just learn they aren't good?

I love the blueish color of that sweater with your skin tone - very flattering!! (I definitely would have commented on the fact of same pants for two weeks but haven't had a chance to get online for a bit ;)

I wish I could make a thrifted sweater look that good! I really like the grey jeans with the black shoes. The color combo really works, in my opinion. You look great! I hope the L.A. weather is treating you well. :)

HA!! You can wear whatever you want and I'll never say anything unless I love your outfit! And maybe sometimes not then. Your blog, your pants, your rules! Yay gray skinnies for being so versatile I seriously didn't notice! Way to be there!!
